CODE OF CONDUCT


Revised November 14, 2003

The Student Center Network has put together a Code of Conduct to give everybody some guidelines regarding behavior on the site. Most importantly, just use common sense. Treat others the way that you expect and want to be treated. The Student Center has become a very popular place because there is generally a very friendly tone here and it is a great place for students to meet other students. So the most important thing is to just treat others well. Don't engage in any personal attacks against any other users. You aren’t expected to like everybody. Just ignore people you don't like.

Administrators, moderators and other staff are assigned the task of upholding the following regulations. These regulations are subject to change without notice, and it is recommended that you periodically review this document from time to time in order to keep current.

The site has the right to take down anybody's content and account at anytime.

The identity to the person you are giving this information to is unknown. Many people at The Student Center who have met each other online have gone on to meet each other offline. We encourage people to do so. But if you ever meet somebody offline, be VERY careful. Get to know them as well as possible before meeting offline. Make sure to meet in a very public place like the food court of a mall. Tell your family and friends beforehand where you will be and have a cell phone with you in case of emergencies. We also highly recommend that you do not meet anybody outside of your age range unless a large number of people from the site are getting together. Remember that there is safety in numbers, so be very careful about meeting somebody alone.
